    Abstract: A technique that corrects photodetector non-linearity without increasing the noise level in the detector signal. The detector is coupled to a preamplifier characterized by the absence of positive feedback, and the preamplifier signal is communicated to a linear amplifier whose output signal is then digitized. The digitized signal is then transformed according to stored calibration information that is representative of the non-linear characteristic of the photodetector. The transformed digitized value thus exhibits a linear characteristic as a function of the intensity of the light source. A number of embodiments perform the correction in hardware before digitizing the signal.

    Abstract: There are provided a drift calculation device capable of accurately calculating a drift by using a buffer of smaller capacity, and a light detection device provided with the same. Every time measurement intensity is input according to a predetermined cycle, data in a plurality of sum buffers 321 to 324 are updated based on at least one of the measurement intensity and the measurement time at that time. The sum buffers 321 to 324 are assigned respectively to a plurality of sum functions forming a coefficient included in a calculation formula for calculating a drift by using the least squares method. A drift is calculated by substituting the updated data in the plurality of sum buffers 321 to 324 in the calculation formula. Since it is not necessary to store all the measurement intensity input at the predetermined cycle, a drift is accurately calculated by a buffer of smaller capacity.

    Abstract: A light source (12) emits radiation which is maintained at a desired intensity by use of a photodetector which views the radiation and has a fixed relationship between incident radiation and output photodetector (18) current. Intensity of the radiation is established by varying electric current applied to the source, via a feedback loop (42, 24, 22, 34), to attain a reference value of the photodetector current, the photodetector current being representative of the desired value of radiation intensity. This procedure may be performed first in an air environment with a specific optical assembly of source and photodetector to establish the reference value of photodetector current for a desired value of radiation intensity. Thereupon, the optical system may be operated in a vacuum environment, and a monitoring of the photodetector current establishes the desired value of radiation intensity. Alternatively, the source is operated at a fixed value of excitation current, and an iris (44) or other radiation attenuator is operated to produce the reference value of photodetector current.
